Was on a Don’t Starve kick, but thinking about doing some Stardew Valley because it’s such a cozy game

That’s the name of one of my favorite xmas films

Really enjoy Don’t Starve, as much as I find the gameplay loop tedious.

Hope you’re feeling better. Good to know it’s possible, as I’ve got more cash invested into the PlayStation platform than I probably should have.

Friiiiick I miss freelancer so much. Best space sim to date.

D-word, so you’re saying I can play PS5 from a dang steam deck?

I can’t recommend his scifi trilogy enough! The first book (“Out of the Silent Planet”) is my favorite, but the 2nd is also pretty good. The 3rd book is COMPLETELY different from the first two, but still enjoyable.

There are clear allusions to monotheistic faith in each of them, but I believe he was a philosopher first and foremost. Great reading for over winter holiday if you get a break from school/work at all.

“A pleasure is full grown only when it is remembered. You are speaking, Hmán, as if pleasure were one thing and the memory another. It is all one thing.” - CS Lewis’ Sci-fi Trilogy

Your nostalgia for the game is just as much a part of your experience of the game as when you originally played it. Enjoy feeling the good memories and that desire to go back to them, but know that you can never go back. Remembering good times is just those good times becoming “fully mature”.

Hahahaha, this was what I was thinking of. Thanks!

Wait… is this a deep cut? Why does this seem familiar?

I read this as “only chair we can use in the graveyard” and thought you worked for a mortuary service and there were too cheap to get to a decent maintenance stool.

Jessica Dickler, why the FUCK would I wait for the value of my cash to disintegrate when I could get 1.08x more tacos today than if I put that money in savings and bought tacos with it next year?

Hoity-toity microwaves >.>

WHAT?! My hero!

Bottom row, 2nd from the left. Simple, clean, distinct.

Wow, loved seeing someone from the developer post in the comments section for the article. Very cool.

Hey, that really sucks and I’m sorry it’s happening to you. You sound very competent and like you take pride in your work.

Here’s my advice:

1. Don’t quit without another gig lined up.

2. Start looking for a new job now. A bad boss can ruin even a great job, and managers in particular are hard for a company to get rid of. She’ll likely be in that position awhile. You’ve got a boss who is incompetent and has already displayed some loose ethics. You don’t want to stick around that.

3. Incompetent bosses can sometimes be a good thing because they’re easy to fool. Consider pulling back on your work production so you can focus on designing a great resume and prepping for interviews.

And remember the most important rule: “A company will get rid of you just as soon as it’s convenient for them to do so. You should be ready to do the same to the company.”

Microsoft has a partnership with OpenAI. I’m sure Microsoft is happy to have someone in-house who knows all of those secrets.
